This house is picturesque and has a fabulous fairytale vibe to it. Built in 1911, this was the first mansion in Beverly Hills. The house looks beautiful but from the reviews that I have read, the gardens are truly what people love. Robinson’s department store when they started living in this mansion. The Derby House was designed by Lloyd Wright in 1926.
Giving the Dream House Its Birth(W)right: What We Know About Our American System Built Home
It originally appeared as a short story called "Mr. Blandings Builds His Castle" in the April 1946 issue of Fortune magazine. An advertising executive dreams of getting out of the city and building a perfect home in the country, only to find the transition fraught with problems. There is a list printed at the bottom of an advertising page. I think there’s about 60 listed, but it’s just cities, no street addresses.

They already spent $13,000 just on the lot and tearing down the old house. Within two years the novel had sold 540,000 copies. The screen rights were sold for $200,000.[1] It was adapted as a film of the same name, released in 1948, which starred Cary Grant, Myrna Loy, and Melvyn Douglas. Later three radio adaptations were also performed, with Grant in the leading role, followed by a weekly radio series, also starring Grant.

Written and produced by the team of Melvin Frank and Norman Panama, it was an adaptation of the 1946 novel of the same name written by Eric Hodgins and illustrated by William Steig. If you would like to visit Dunder Mifflin check out this post. This house is first shown in the “Frame Toby” episode and though it looks slightly different than it did in the show it is the actual location.
A golden hour–ready historic family home
It looks like something straight out of a fairytale. Hollywood art director Harry Oliver designed the home. The house was built in 1921 to be offices and dressing rooms for Irvin Willat’s film studio in Culver City.
This is another home that is still on my to-visit list. Novelist and television writer Patrick Somerville and his wife Alexis had resisted the idea of calling Los Angeles home. For nearly a decade, they kept extending the lease of their Silver Lake rental, thinking that someday soon they’d move back to the Midwest, where they’re both from, and raise their three children there.
Movie and TV Houses in Studio City

The area is stunning and has great views of the city too. It is free to visit the grounds though occasionally the opportunity will become available to tour the inside for a fee. You can read about my visit here in my post on Greystone Mansion. They soon learn that the house is structurally unsound and must be torn down. The Blandings' dream house soon threatens to be the nightmare that undoes them.
The charming Silver Lake home of a Hollywood screenwriter
This home and park have such a wonderful variety of activities for visitors. You can tour the home (during non-covid times), go horseback riding, hiking, attend movie nights over the summer, and polo games. Will Rogers was a popular actor in the early days of Hollywood. In the 1920’s he bought land in Santa Monica and his 359 acres included some land that would later become part of Pacific Palisades. In the 1940s his wife, Betty left their 31 room ranch and the land to the California State Parks.

I have toured the house for free on two different occasions which you can read about here. This is Doc Brown’s house in the Back to the Future trilogy. In the scenes taking place in 1985, the mansion no longer exists and Doc lives in his garage/laboratory which in real life is the carriage house turned giftshop. La La Land is in my top five favorite movies and easily my favorite movie set in Los Angeles, closely followed by Valentine’s Day. I have visited several filming locations from La La Land including Angels Flight, the Smoke House Restaurant, and the Lighthouse Cafe.

You can see my photos of various movies and TV show houses from my visit to the Warner Bros Ranch. The house pictured is where the Heck family lived in The Middle. About last night…thanks to @yielddesignco for inviting us into the sowden house and introducing us to your black dahlia cbd candle.
From the photos that I have seen online the inside looks really interesting. The Hollyhock House was designed by Frank Llyod Wright for Aline Barnsdall though she quickly became disillusioned with the home and donated it to the city of LA. The hollyhock was Aline’s favorite flower and was used as a theme throughout the house. Even if you cannot tour the home it is visible from the park and the city views are wonderful as well.
This house was created by Frank Gehry for him and his family in 1978. He changed an existing house and turned it into something truly unique. The neighbors may not have been thrilled with what the home became but it looks like something really fun to see in person.
A few out buildings have also been added behind the house and the rock wall that once lined the front of the house has been replaced with a low red brick wall. The house from Last Man Standing is in the Windsor Square neighborhood and while that is not DTLA I am going to group them together. It is semi-close to The Grove if you want to stop by on a visit over there. The Brady Bunch House has been one of the most exciting homes that I have visited so far. After HGTV did the makeover of the house I was hoping that they might open it up for fans to see. So far though you can only view it from the outside.
